Backyard Gold

Afternoon stretching like a cat Sunlight pooling on the grass Got my feet up, got my drink Got nothing better to do than this And that's exactly right That's exactly where I want to be Backyard gold, backyard gold This is the warmth I've been told about Lazy hours, easy time Everything's working out just fine Backyard gold, golden day Nothing urgent, come what may The neighbors' music drifting over Someone's grilling down the street The world is happening all around me But right here, right now, I'm complete And that's exactly right That's exactly where I'm meant to be Backyard gold, backyard gold This is the warmth I've been told about Lazy hours, easy time Everything's working out just fine Backyard gold, golden day Nothing urgent, come what may This is what the week was for This is what I'm working toward Not the money, not the fame Just these golden hours in the sun Backyard gold Golden afternoon Backyard gold Nothing but the groove
